Cottons Shoreditch

Switch those end-of-summer blues for a colourful, juicy, sun-soaked wedge of the Caribbean. An elegant interpretation of that coveted #islandlife, Cottons is at once stylish with all the free-flowing vibes of a communal rum shack.

Cottons Shoreditch is determined to bring beachy, free-spirited vibes to the trendy streets of Shoreditch. Where all windows open to the turquoise sea and white sand beaches (courtesy of some very realistic artwork,) lose yourself to your new reality, bundle around an informal bistro table with loved ones and enjoy the buzz that illuminates Cottons' intimate setup. During summer it gets even better with thatched umbrellas and colourful furniture lining the street outside, transporting you to tropical climes.

As for Caribbean cuisine, can you think of anything more nourishing for the body and soul? The home of perfectly marinated meats and hearty grills, you can expect the likes of jerk chicken, spicy beefburgers, oxtail stews and curried mutton lining the menu. And with miles upon miles of untouched coastline, seafood is a must, especially if jerk salmon and seafood coconut curry are on offer.

Vegetarians are also invited to feast on the island's rich plantations, indulging in anything from vegan mutton to cauliflower stew and jackfruit salads. Finally, get your rum on with a beach-ready cocktail that'll put you in vacation mode any day of the week, and live your best life in the easy-breezy Caribbean.
